My husband is 68, his mom and dad are in their middle 90's. Thirty years is a loooong time to miss out on doing something fun. We're moving down and we are going to thoroughly enjoy how ever many years we have left. Go for it!! I know too many senior citizens that spend their lives alone because it's too hard to make new friends, my dad did that, retired in his mid 50's, sat on the couch to watch tv and stayed there until he developed dementia by the age of 70 and died at 73. I swear, if he had gone to the Villages, he would still be around! He thought it was too hard to go out to meet new people and enjoy life. I refuse to do that and you should too!
